Local site ROADS.sg shared a Facebook video of the drivers assisting one another to clear away the material along the junction.

The video opened with a few drivers who had just alighted from their vehicles, rushing to the junction where the material was scattered.

They each took at least one piece of material, helping one another clear the road efficiently.

In the post’s caption, the site wrote that many car and lorry drivers were involved in the joint effort.

The video quickly went viral, with many netizens commending the samaritans for their altruism for other road users.

One Facebook user shared that it was heartwarming to see such acts of goodwill, especially if one does it out of their own accord.

Another netizen also lauded the drivers for their display of “kampong spirit”.

Highlighting that “a little helping hand goes a long way”, one user expressed their hopes for society to display more kindness and graciousness.
